Lagoon Nebula - Our Breathtaking Universe Skateboard Deck
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series A fantastic outer space picture showing the third image of ESO’s GigaGalaxy Zoom project. It's an amazing vista of the Lagoon Nebula taken with the 67-million-pixel Wide Field Imager attached to the MPG/ESO 2.2-metre telescope at the La Silla Observatory in Chile. The image covers more than one and a half square degrees - an area eight times larger than that of the Full Moon. It's based on images acquired using three different broadband filters (B, V, R) and one narrow-band filter (H-alpha). It's a mind-expanding, wonderful image that reveals a little of the wonder that is our universe. ESO/J. Reproduced under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported license.
